  1. Hey guys I looked for this and I didn't find anything so I'm gonna give it a shot, I want to clean just the bowl of my pipe and get all the gunky resin out anyone know how to go about this? I don't want to clean the entire pipe (I already know how to do that with sea salt and water) my glass is color changing and I want to keep the colors on it everywhere else on the pipe I tried running hot water on it and it wasn't really working and it took some of the resin out in my pipe and it already started losing some color to it. I also tried using a pocket knife to kind of scrape it but I don't want to ruin the glass on the inside. Thanks guys

  2. (Put gloves on because its a bitch to get resin off your fingers and it will smell like ass if you dont) But I usually take a paper clip and put it in the thumb hole and use the light coming threw the bowl to see what to scrape out inside the bowl, then take the paper clip and put it in the mouth part and scrape it all out, and then take a knife and scrape off the part where you put the weed. Now take rubbing alcohol and salt put it in a bag and then shake it around with the bowl and your golden.
     
  3. Sweet guys thanks!

  5. I never want to waste time cleaning it and now my entire room reeks of stale ash. Guess I should get it a scrub or two... 
     
  6. CLR for those pieces that are stubborn and an overnight in the ol' ISO doesn't solve it!
     
  7. I soak in iso for a couple hours cork my carb and ill pull it put and ru. Really hot tap water threw ot and water takes everything out np when its bad 2 pipe cleaners tl help loosen shit
     
  8. Use CLR on it. Just don't smoke out it after that.
     
  9. yeah that's my dilemma to my whole room reeks of stale weed and it's kinda gross and all my clothes smell like it lmfao (I store all my goodies right next to my closet)

  10. What in the world were you doing? Just use Iso and salt put everything in a ziplock. Almost anything will fit in the gallon size bags. Anyway it will only smell at little when you rinse it out.
    I clean my pipe in my dorm room this way all the time.

    Iso/seasalt/salt, shake, dump, wash with dishsoap to remove leftover smell
     
  12. Your best bet would be doing a quick soak in epsom salt and alcohol, and then using a simple paperclip or something similar to get it out.
    Here's a guide which you can alter to suite your needs - How to clean your piece
